President Joe Biden is urging the United Auto Workers and Detroit's major automakers, including Stellantis, Ford, and General Motors, to negotiate a fair contract that guarantees job security and competitive wages, and supports the middle as carmakers transition to an electric vehicle future. This comes after UAW President Shawn Fain criticized Stellantis' proposed contract, prompting Biden's intervention. He called for good wages, benefits, and a say in the industry's future for workers. Biden outlined key negotiation goals: family-supporting jobs, organization rights, plant closure avoidance, and fair transitions. The UAW welcomed Biden's support, advocating for contracts that uplift working-class communities. Stellantis, Ford, and GM began negotiations with UAW recently, with Stellantis COO Mark Stewart emphasizing the importance of constructive dialogue. GM confirmed a wage increase while discussions on other demands continue. Ford expressed commitment to collaborating with the UAW in an evolving industry.
